Message: [QUOTE="BoyNamedSude, post: 5344404, member: 275355"] I LOVE PLAYING CARDS. I LOVE COMPETING. I LOVE ADVENTURE AND RISK. Any card game, can involve money, at any level, and poker is just like any other card game... there are odds, mindsets, bluffs, and skill levels. Whether your game is gin rummy, or Euchre, or even "Go Fish". I grew up playing Cards, and play probably over 50 different games, at very high levels. I personally find texas-hold-em to be boring and repetitive, and prefer Omaha Hi-Lo, and HORSE/8-Game, Hearts, Spades, and so many more... The compulsion to commercialize Poker, and play online, and generate vast quantities of money for Operators, has led to a downgrading of "playing cards". The skill-sets, and specific "science of mathematics" has become a Mainstay for the promotion of only 1 card game, where thousands exist, and the enjoyment of "cards" has been reduced by "addiction and compulsion", to only one game... In Trinidad and Tobago, we are very very competitive in a game called "All-Fours" of which the main skills involve playing with a Partner, and reading your opponents for "signs"... This makes us Superior Poker players by Nature, so that's good when playing against Folks who don't have any exposure to such skills, but its boring in the long run... I would be interested to here from others on their favourite games... poker or not, and how they feel about the monotony of a fixation on Texas Hold'em. "Card Playing is like a Woman, a complex matter, yet most Men only focus on One aspect of thousands...and maybe that's all they can focus on!" "Texas Hold'em is only One Game...there are thousands of other with their own skill sets." Love to You all...Eat Real Food!:star::star::star::star: [/QUOTE]
